Tell Me, Mechanist

[Intro]  B G

A                F#m              
Tell me, mechanist, is it true?
 B G

A             F#m
Does none of it bother you?

B   A F#m
B   A F#m
B   A F#m

D
Once upon a time
              A
Upon a time behind us
       D
The mechanist inclined
                     F#m
Clockworks of time define us
         G           A
Who you are, who you are
        G
Merely springs that tick
    A               E
The time of things away

B
The cry from the beast is just the 
noise
Of a spring that you have touched
      A             F#m
Not a human: Not a voice

        C#       A            
If only we could go back to the 
  B
start (tell me, mechanist, is it 
true?)
         C#        A          
We would see we're not that far 
   B        G#
apart (does none of it bother you?)
   C#         A              B
Realize the likeness of our hearts

            A
If we could go back
         F#m
We could go back

B           G
One and the same
               A
Likely to one another
           G
But the mechanist inclined
B                   F#m
Merely our kind can suffer
A   E   G            A
Who you are, who you are
        G
Does it justify
     A
Pleasing your palate
E
With the other's blood?

B
Tell me why, have the writings on 
the wall
Nor the dawn of DNA
           A              F#m
Changed a single thing at all?

        C#       A            
If only we could go back to the 
  B
start (tell me, mechanist, is it 
true?)
         C#        A          
We would see we're not that far 
   B            G#
apart (does none of it bother you?)
   C#         A              B
Realize the likeness of our hearts
            A
If we could go back
        F#m      G#m
We could go back
        B    C#
to the start

B
Closing collision:
The end of our divide
Savor the flavor of our ancestry 
 A
rites

B
Closing collision:
We'll realize in time
A     B
No opposition

We're genetically entwined
